Using Expression Encoder 2 Beta - some cool new features

BronwenWeeGo.jpgI downloaded the newExpression Encoder 2 Beta so I could encode some videos for Silverlight Streaming today and noticed a few differences.

I did notice a change to the output aswell which will affect the manifest.xml file.  I used to have a BasePlayer.js file but the new version outputs ExpressionPlayer.js instead.

There's a few cool options around playback parameters so you can control whether to play back automatically etc. Check out the rest of the new feature list here: http://www.microsoft.com/expression/products/download.aspx?key=encoder2beta

I don't know if you have already worked with it, but there is a Silverlight Streaming plugin for Expression Encoder. I did some experiments a while ago and if you like just check out the results:

I've used the plugin..it's very handy if you don't want to package up your xaml and js files yourself :) I'm liking the new "Manage Videos" option myself..no more encoding and packaging required.
